Starting Today, I'll Work as a City Lord

Semir and John Xun sat on the stool for more than half an hour. They also bought a lot of snacks and drinks from the convenience store and waited while eating.

"We have been here for so long, and there are no fewer people on the street." John Xun sighed.

"That's right, there are so many people in such a hot day." Semir admired them very much.

"Tread.....

While Semir and the two were still chatting, Ax led the patrol to pass by the two.

Semir hastily elbowed the orc knight, pulled him up and ran over, respectfully, "Mr. Knight, hello."

"Is there a problem?"

Ax raised his hand to signal the procession to stop, adding, "We are patrolmen, not knights."

"Not a knight?" John was full of doubts.

Semir paused for a moment, "[-]" said, "We want to ask about the treatment of the cavalry and patrol officers in Chang'an City."

"You want to be a policeman?" Axe asked suspiciously.

"With this idea, we want to know the difference between a patrolman and a knight?"

Semir is straightforward.

Ax looked the two of them up and down, paused for a moment and said, "If you really want to be a patrolman, you can go to the Security Department and ask, there will be someone there to answer for you.

He just finished his paternity leave today, and he is on the first patrol today, but he has no time to share with others, so he can only let them go to the Security Division.

Anyway, people in Chang'an City will ask about the benefits of being a soldier every day, and those who really want to be a soldier can also go to the Security Department for consultation.

Semir nodded thoughtfully, and said politely, "Thank you, where is the Security Division? How to get there?"

Ax pointed in the direction of the old city, and said, "It's right next to the library in the old city, you can take a carriage or a bus."

"Thank you." Semir nodded his thanks.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the door of the Security Division in a carriage, but they didn't go in immediately, but stood there for a while. "Are we really going to go in and ask?" John asked in confusion.

"Of course, I've come here, so I have to plan for the future." Semir said without hesitation.

John Xun struggled for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, just go in, anyway, His Highness doesn't know that I'm asking this."

"That's right, if you and I don't tell, they won't find out." Semir urged.

The two stepped into the security department, explained the reason for coming to the guard soldiers at the door, and were taken to a room to stay there.

John Xun looked around nervously, and asked, "What did they arrange us for here?"

From the time they entered the security department to being taken into the room, they could see many knights coming in and out, some of them were still in custody, and the sophisticated weapons and armor made them a little flustered.

"I don't know, is it because we discovered that we were knights?" Semir speculated.

"No, if we find out, we should be locked in a dungeon.

John News analyzed.

Semir disagreed, shook his head and said, "We didn't do anything, we just came out on vacation, they have no reason to lock us up.

"Then what are you doing now?" John Xun was very disturbed and regretted asking. If he stayed on the construction site obediently, he would be able to go back to see his family soon.

"Let's not scare ourselves, just wait for a while, maybe nothing will happen."

Semir comforted, but his palms were sweating a lot.

John Xun nodded anxiously, rubbing his pants with his hands, trying to calm himself down a bit. It would be a serious crime if His Royal Highness found out about this, and he might even be hanged.

Ten minutes later, a soldier came in with a document and sat down in front of the two of them.

Seeing the other party sitting down, Semir pulled John Xun up and saluted slightly, and looked at the other party uneasily after sitting down.

"Don't be too restrictive, I'm just asking a few questions." The soldier captain said calmly.

"Okay." John nodded and put his hands on the table.

"You want to be patrolmen, don't you?" the soldier-major asked bluntly.

Semir nodded without hesitation and said, "No, we just want to know, if the treatment is right, we are willing to give it a try."

The soldier captain smiled slightly, and said, "It's not that easy to be a soldier in Chang'an City, even if you want to, you have to pass the test...

"Assessment?" John Xun knew that things were not that simple.

"Yes, we'll talk about that later, what do you want to know?" asked the soldier captain.

Semir thought for a while and asked, "Is there any difference between a patrolman and a knight?"

"The patrolmen are the soldiers on the patrol team, responsible for the security of Chang'an City every day, and we don't have knights in Chang'an City, only soldiers." The soldier captain simply explained.

"Then what if we want to recruit soldiers?" John asked.

The soldier captain smiled and explained, "We all start from scratch, and are promoted based on military exploits. The higher the position, the better the benefits...

Ten minutes later, the captain of the soldier explained all the advantages of being a soldier. As for the types of arms, training methods, and some things that should not be mentioned, he only talked about the general introduction.

"Are the benefits of being a soldier so good? After dying in battle, the family can still have... pensions, right?" Semir thinks this word is a mouthful.

"Is it true that you eat meat every day? And you get more than 100 copper coins every month?" John said excitedly.
